I'm harbouring a strange obsession to get these (front at least) for my RS - anyone got any idea of price / is it possible?

I'm assuming they might be better, but won't say 'lamborghini' on them!

Personally I can't see what's wrong with the standard "RS" logo on the black caliper - I can see the point of upgrading to have the larger set up or ceramics...

But Lamborghini?

Really?

Ramone, here you go, get back in your box mate.

It was kinda odd, as far as I know there's never been a collaboration between Audi and Lambo. Now if you wanted to add some Porsche decals to your callipers.... *Nods in approval*

Ramone! Noooooooooooooo. You will be creating the bastard child of Frankenstein!

Drybeer: you need to brake later into corners and go faster than 50mph. :D

Sorry Drybeer, re-read your post. I withdraw my flippant remark and will eat humble crumble.

I didn't know that, was that the offical line (a la RS2) or just a platform share?
